I see CV/KH going 50/50 with each other with CV getting the odd big update until morning at which KH will comeback and win the match easily or CV will continue its small gains.

Great update for CV there, KH was nearly constant.

With less profound voting trends and us just starting to get into CV's strongest time, I'm liking its chances more and more.

Hrm...MG/CV, who gets the day vote? o.o

See, KH gains back little by little, and then CV storms out with this big update all of a sudden.

I figure as long as Kingdom Hearts is within 1000 votes by the time morning hits, it'll be in good shape. That's not to say it'll get the morning vote because Halo didn't, but I'll like its chances.

I wonder how big of a lead that Castlevania will have before morning hits. I'm not expecting Kingdom Hearts to make any big swings at that time, but it seems to be slowly increasing its lead here.

Gecko Engine (Firefox, Mozilla, etc): 56% for Castlevania.
IE Engine: 53% for Kingdom Hearts.

I have no idea how to interpret that. You guys take that and run with it, I'm not even going to try and guess what that means.

And for the curious, Opera is 58%, Safari is 56%, both for CV.


WAIT UNTIL THE IE USERS WAKE UP

That's bad news for KH. IE usage has been on a steady decline while Firefox has really gone up. A year ago IE was barely over 50% and is likely a good deal under right now.

From CJayC Posted 7/21/2006 3:42:42 AM #001
So, I went through and was doing some nice due diligence to make sure that there was no way fraudulent votes were getting through. I analyzed the data up and down, couldn't find the slightest hint of any voting patterns, anomalies, or even external influences for this one.

So, I turned on advanced logging and captured a few thousand votes. The results kind of threw me.

Gecko Engine (Firefox, Mozilla, etc): 56% for Castlevania.
IE Engine: 53% for Kingdom Hearts.

I have no idea how to interpret that. You guys take that and run with it, I'm not even going to try and guess what that means.

And for the curious, Opera is 58%, Safari is 56%, both for CV.

There were 11 votes from PSP users.

I also saw one DreamCast, several Sidekicks, a couple of other mobile phones, and, you're never going to believe this, an N-Gage.

...

Sorry, I got a little distracted there. But no real cheating I could find. Except for the one user that got axed earlier for vote stuffing, but his votes weren't counted anyway.


This is bad news for KH, given that Firefox use is on the rise--

GOD DAMN YOU TRE >_<

If Castlevania is outdoing it on so many browsers and yet has this small of a lead, there must have been a lot of Internet Explorer votes cast O_o
